Tristana vs Anivia

Confidence mediumUpdated Jun 10, 2026

Overview

Use early level 2 advantage and support follow-up to force quick all-ins before Anivia sets up zone control.
Exploit Anivia's low mobility and punish missed (Q) stuns with aggressive jump resets.
Manage wave crashes to pressure turret plates and deny Anivia safe farming windows.

Trading pattern

Initiate trades by stacking (E) burst, then jump (W) only with support CC ready to lock down Anivia.
Punish Anivia immediately after she misses (Q) stun or uses (W) terrain to reposition.
Avoid jumping into large minion waves to prevent minion aggro turning trades against you.

Danger windows

Respect (Q) stun combo and (R) slow zone after level 6, which punish overextensions.
Avoid jumping forward without support follow-up when (W) terrain can block escape routes.
Beware passive wave push exposing you to ganks or (Q) stun setups behind minion waves.

Early game

Push to hit level 2 first and coordinate with support for jump (W) all-ins before (Q) is ready.
Avoid extended passive pushes that let Anivia zone you with (R) and block escape with (W).
Reset after winning trades to convert turret damage with stacked (E) and maintain lane pressure.

Power spikes

Level 2 spike: (W) jump plus (E) burst enable strong all-ins before (Q) stun cooldown.
First marksman item spike: enhances burst and turret pressure, forcing Anivia to recall or lose plates.
Post-6 spike: respect (R) zoning; avoid forced fights without cooldowns or jungle support.

Win conditions

Force early all-ins with support to snowball turret plates and deny Anivia farm.
Use jump resets and stacked (E) to maintain lane dominance and pressure mid turret.
Transition lane pressure into mid-game objective control by leveraging your mobility and burst advantage.
